Installatie op macbook m2

Post by Marc Lammers » Thu Aug 28, 2025 2:05 pm

Ben van plan om Qcad aan te kopen, maar bij de proefinstallatie op Macbook M2 loopt het na de installatie mis.
Hierbij het probleem en info over hardware en software:
- Hardware => Macbook M2 met aangesloten bijkomend scherm en
- Software => Chip Apple M2 Pro, 16GB geheugen, MacOS 15.6.1
- Installatie lukt, maar bij opstarten blokkeert het programma
- heb een andere installatie uitgevoerd met Snapshot trial en dat werkt wel (macOS 12.7-15.x M1/M2/M3/M4 (arm 64bit), Qt 6, Snapshot)
-de gewone versie blokkert, nl macOS 12.7-15.x M1/M2/M3/M4 (arm 64bit) Disk Image
Graag info zodat ik eventueel Qcad kan aankopen.

I'm planning to buy Qcad, but the trial installation on a MacBook M2 fails after installation.
Here's the problem and some information about the hardware and software:
- Hardware => MacBook M2 with an additional monitor connected
- Software => Apple M2 Pro chip, 16GB of memory, macOS 15.6.1
- Installation is successful, but the program freezes during startup
- I performed a different installation with the Snapshot trial and that works (macOS 12.7-15.x M1/M2/M3/M4 (ARM 64bit), Qt 6, Snapshot)
- The regular version freezes, namely macOS 12.7-15.x M1/M2/M3/M4 (ARM 64bit) Disk Image
Please provide information so I can potentially purchase Qcad.

Unfortunately, this is not a familiar problem or a problem we have a solution for.

You could try to reset your QCAD installation:
https://qcad.org/en/tutorial-resetting- ... figuration

Or use the snapshot release for now.
The problem could also be limited to the trial version.


Helaas is dit geen bekend probleem of een probleem waar we een oplossing voor hebben.

U zou kunnen proberen om uw QCAD installatie te resetten:
https://qcad.org/en/tutorial-resetting- ... figuration

Of gebruik voorlopig de snapshotversie.
Het probleem kan ook beperkt zijn tot de proefversie.

I performed a reset and the problem is solved. So Qcad starts up. Marc
